    We replace the coolant sensor as well and unpluged the battery to see if it would reset itself and ours still comes on. It sucks cause it beeps when we are driving.

SOURCE: coolant level sensor bad warning comes on console

Coolant sensor wiring would be the next place to look. Make sure connector is good, and look for broken wires.

Electronic display says coolant sensor bad. I replaced the sensor located in the recovery bottle, but it still reads bad?
Good Evening, I can certainly understand your problem, I fought with a 97 grand cherokee with the same problem, at the end of all the troubleshooting it ended up being the information display module. Certainly it is something to consider, especially changing the sensor a couple times to be sure. Hope this helps, If you have any more questions please feel free to ask.

Coolant sensor keeps saying bad would that cause it to over heat jeep laredo 97 grand cherokee
Yes, cause that sensor operates the electric cooling fans by the radiator, if those fans or fan don't come on, the radiator can't cool down as quick and causes the engine to run hotter.

The Coolant Sensor is inside coolant bottle; in this models is common ths message failed; clean the plug and reset your ECU alarms, if the message come on again, replace your coolant sensor. And, really, one message about a bad sensor/signal is one bad work engine.

Good luck.

"coolant sensor bad" warning comes on all the time.
The jeep should have 2 coolant sensors, one guage sensor and one switch. Try replacing the other one that you haven't already replaced.
